HORI Bringing Switch D-Pad Joy-Cons to the West

In a recent video from IGN, it was confirmed that the Switch D-Pad Joy-Cons are finally coming to the west! And even better, they’re coming with unique Legend of Zelda and Mario designs.

They plan on being released this September for $25USD, which is much cheaper than the regular Joy-Cons. However, this is because they will be missing some features, such as: Bluetooth, SL/SR buttons and gyrosensor. So in practicality, these Joy-Cons are primarily for playing single-player games on the go.
